    1. [KYMONTGO] Miller King & Sarah Higgins family
    2. I'm hoping to identify the wife of my ancestor, Miller KING (c. 1770, possibly in England- ). I think she may have been Sarah HIGGINS, daughter of Capt. James Higgins (c. 1754-) & his wife, Nancy Estes... According to a letter written by Hiram H. Higgins in 1872: "Sarah [daughter of Capt. James Higgins] married a yankee by the name of King, in Montgomery County, and shortly thereafter emigrated, and settled near the mouth of Bean's Creek, Franklin County, Tennessee, raised a large family of respectable and handsome sons and daughters." In 1819 my Miller King received a land grant of 50 acres in Cumberland County, KY. In 1824 in Franklin County, TN he received a grant on Bean's Creek. 1830 census TN Franklin Sarah KING (F 60-70) (widow?) with some of family, living next to Amazon KING - proven son of Miller KING Sounds right, but no proof. All help welcome! Karen
